Tin can, fishing weights, wheel weights, propane stove, torch, it's all good. I found the led does not stick to aluminum so I took a u channel to form the sides and a thin piece of aluminum that I shaped to form the front and back and fit it in the u channel. I taped the outside which will burn but it hold the led long enough to form a nice weight.
